Seeing that the elders of the fox demon clan had withdrawn their divine sense, Liu Xiaoyuan, who was hiding in the pool, breathed a sigh of relief.
Fortunately, Liu Xiaoyuan summoned a cultivator who knew the Turtle Breathing Technique in time. This Turtle Breathing Technique is a very strange supernatural power that can completely conceal oneself, making it impossible for others to discover one's existence.
When cultivated to its peak, it can deceive the divine sense and eyes of any cultivator, making it the number one method of concealment.
Liu Xiaoyuan has already memorized the Turtle Breathing Technique. He will definitely practice it properly when he has time in the future, as this skill is very practical.
If it weren't for the help of this technique, Liu Xiaoyuan, who was hiding in the pool, would have been discovered by the elders of the fox demon clan.
The rain grew heavier and heavier, falling like beans, pattering loudly as it hit the puddles.
Seeing that the two female fox demons guarding the pond had gone to take shelter from the rain under the tree, Liu Xiaoyuan immediately popped his head out of the pond and then quietly climbed out.
Once ashore, the rain lashed against Liu Xiaoyuan's face, causing him some pain.
After Liu Xiaoyuan reached the shore, he glanced around casually and immediately flew towards the tallest building in Tingyu Pavilion.
Upon arriving there, Liu Xiaoyuan saw two guards standing at the entrance. It seemed that the fox demon clan treated the Holy Maiden like a treasure, hence the tight security.
Liu Xiaoyuan glanced around, then immediately flew up from behind, using the Turtle Breathing Technique to carefully check which room Su Xue was in.
Liu Xiaoyuan immediately noticed Su Xue's presence. He saw Su Xue sitting on a chair in a room, facing the mirror on the dressing table, with a worried look on her face, as if she was thinking about something.
Upon learning of Su Xue's whereabouts, Liu Xiaoyuan didn't wait any longer and broke through the window to enter Su Xue's room.
Hearing the noise, Su Xue, who was sitting in the chair, immediately turned around and saw Liu Xiaoyuan barging in. She was so happy that she almost jumped up.
"Liu..." Su Xue was about to call out Liu Xiaoyuan's name when Liu Xiaoyuan immediately made a shushing gesture towards her.
Su Xue immediately understood what was going on. The place was heavily guarded, and if Su Xue called out Liu Xiaoyuan's name, she would definitely be in trouble.
Liu Xiaoyuan immediately crawled into Su Xue's bed and hid there, using the Turtle Breathing Technique.
Just as Liu Xiaoyuan finished doing all this, there was a knock on Su Xue's door. The fox demon outside was very anxious and called out, "Holy Maiden, Holy Maiden, what's wrong?"
Su Xue glanced at Liu Xiaoyuan, who was hiding on the bed, and said, "I'm fine, you can go downstairs."
These people still refused to come down, standing outside the door and saying, "Holy Maiden, please open the door. We can hear noises coming from your room."
Seeing that these fox demons showed no respect for her, the Holy Maiden, Su Xue became angry and said, "Do you all have a death wish? You're not even listening to me?"
Upon hearing that Su Xue was angry, the fox demons immediately left obediently, not daring to delay Su Xue any longer.
Su Xue is their Holy Maiden. Apart from the clan leader, the Holy Maiden holds the highest status. Therefore, the Holy Maiden's orders are equivalent to the clan leader's orders and are even more effective than the elders' orders.
After these people left, Liu Xiaoyuan was about to get up when Su Xue shook her head at him and whispered, "The elders of the fox demon clan will definitely come again."
Upon hearing Su Xue's words, Liu Xiaoyuan immediately hid under the covers again. It seems that Su Xue does know a little about the fox demon clan.
Just as Su Xue had expected, less than a minute later, two elders from the fox demon clan arrived.
“Holy Maiden, I heard that someone has broken into your room. I am worried about your safety, so please open the door,” one of the elders said.
His concern for Su Xue's safety was a pretense; his real purpose was simply to search the house.
Su Xue said angrily, "I just broke the window in a fit of anger. You can leave now!"
The elder standing outside asked, "Holy Maiden, why are you angry and want to break the window?"
Su Xue said angrily, "Why am I angry? Isn't it because you treat me like a prisoner every day? Do you still consider me your saintess?"
Upon hearing Su Xue's words, the two elders standing outside were startled. These were words that struck at the heart, and the two of them repeatedly said they dared not.
"If you don't dare, then get out of here right now. I get annoyed just looking at you. If you stay here any longer, I'll tear the house down," Su Xue said angrily.
Upon hearing Su Xue's words, the two elders of the fox demon clan immediately said, "Then, Holy Maiden, you should rest early. We will take our leave now."
After the two elders withdrew, one of them asked, "I think the Holy Maiden is acting a bit strangely tonight."
"Yes, I think so too. We should report this to the clan chief first." After discussing it, the two elders decided to tell the clan chief about it.
After the two elders left, Su Xue whispered to Liu Xiaoyuan, "Xiaoyuan, you can come out now."
Liu Xiaoyuan immediately crawled out of bed and said to Su Xue, "Xue'er, you're getting more and more amazing. Just now, your aura was like that of a queen."
When Su Xue saw Liu Xiaoyuan still joking with her, she immediately rolled her eyes at him and said, "How annoying! I don't want to stay here all day. I just want you to take me home."
Liu Xiaoyuan stood up from the bed and immediately embraced Su Xue, saying, "Xue'er, I will definitely take you out of here."
It's easy to say, but incredibly difficult to actually do. With Liu Xiaoyuan's abilities, it would be very difficult for him to mentor Su Xue right now.
However, no matter how difficult it is, we must find a way to get Su Xue out of here. Liu Xiaoyuan doesn't want Su Xue to be some kind of saintess here.
"Xiao Yuan, don't push yourself. I know your current cultivation level isn't enough to fight against these fox demons. Wait until you can fight them before you rescue me," Su Xue said to Liu Xiao Yuan.
Liu Xiaoyuan said, "Xue'er, I'll teach you a technique that can conceal your tracks. It might be useful for our escape."
Afterwards, Liu Xiaoyuan told Su Xue about the Turtle Breathing Technique.
After obtaining the Turtle Breathing Technique, Su Xue immediately began practicing it.
Su Xue said, "Xiao Yuan, I will definitely cultivate diligently and get out of here as soon as possible so that I can be with you."
"Yes, Xue'er, you must believe me. I will definitely take you away from the fox demon clan," Liu Xiaoyuan said with a determined look.
"Yes, I believe you, Xiao Yuan!" Su Xue said, gently resting her head on Liu Xiao Yuan's shoulder.
